POLITICAL POINTERS.

Frank fort Capital; The Democracy of
Kentucky are ON the eve of u most impor-
tant election. Immediately preceding ma.
tional contest that is to put on trial the first
Democratic administration in more than a
quarter of "A century. There is every reason
that Kentucky should do her whole duty.
She isa typical aud leading Democratic State,
and her action In August will be carried
with the swiitness uflightning to every part
of the country, a victory sustaining her
usual Democratic majority will carry en-.
enlargement aud inspiration To every Dem
ocratic heart throughout the entire country.

Wallace Gruelle, who did more than
any one man in Kentucky to secure the
nomination of Gen. S. b. Buckner for
Governor, in the last issue of his paper,
the Grayson Gazette, says: shameless
and profane men will get up and plead
with the people to vote against the pro-
hibitory law because it will eliminate
from the churches The sacrament of the
Holy Eucharist Good heavens! Is
the vile whisky, made by the profane
swearing, Sabbath breaking distillers of
our county used in any church to repre-
sent the precious shed blood of the bless
ed Saviour"

The voters of this Commonwealth will
on Monday vote to elect full compile
ment of State officers, the most impor-
tant of which is that of Governor. For
the latter position Gen. 5. T.. Buckner is
the standard-bcarer of the Democratic
party; Hon, w. o, Bradley represents
the Republican party; Judge Fontainc
I. Fox, Jr., heads the Prohibition party
As to voting, every man should vote for
the man or men, who, in his opinion,
are best qualified for the positions to
which they aspire. This is right guar
antced to every voter in the United
States under the constitution, and the
exercise of this right to its fullest extent
IL the only way to purify politics. Let
every man exercise it according to the
dictates of his own conscience and COM
mon sense. That is the way we shall
VOTE, and we grant that privilege to all
others, without question as to their mo-
tives in the matter. All men do not see
alike, and it Is well that it is SO. THE
HERALD is not party organ, but indi-
vidually wo claim the right to vote as
in our judgment seems best. Here in
Wolfe county, especially, we hope to
near the election has passed off quietly.
II YOU will give every citizen the right
to DO rs you desire to do, there can bc
no cause for trouble, and il you have
private grievances they shonld be set
tied outside of politics-and on any day
but election day. In conclusion, behave
~ men, vote for whom you please, and
allow others TO do the same. But, aside
from any political party, there is a qurs-
ton which demands your attention. 1t
is for or against q convention TO amend
the constitution. Every, man should
vote on this proposition, 1t is one of
vital importance. II comes up every
two years, and each time costs the State
thousands of dollars. For this reason,
if for no other it should be settled, and
we incline to the opinion that vote for
the convention is the proper thing.

country precincts aud individual Democrats,
County committees should stir the precincts
and the precincts should look after the in
dividual members of the party. Every
member of the party should make it
his personal business to see that every Dem
ocrat goes to the polls on the first day of
August and votes the full Democratic ticket.
this is no time for sticking, scratching or
sulking. Let every Democrat do his duty,
and not depend on the party to do what he
only can dU-that is cast his individual
vote.

TScntincl Democrat

Local option prevails in Lincoln coun-
ty, The Stanford Journal says:
"The effect of the law So far has been
very gratifying"
The counties of Powell, Wolfe, Meme
fee, Brcathitt, Morgan, Magoflin, Elliott,
and Carter, are examples of the good eff
fectsof local option. And though the law
is not entirely enforced crime hos been
reduced to the minimum, and the PEG.
pie will not return to the old days of
high, low or any license.

We believe it is generally conceded
that Hon. Il, NJ. Pieratt, for the Senate,
and james NJ. Oliver for Representative,
will poll the full vote of the Democratic
party, which means they will be elected.
They are both good men, and will serve
The State and their constituents well.
While the latter is an untried legislator,
he has been faithful servant rs county
attorney and surveyor of Menifee, which
would indicate that he will do well in
his new role. Mr.. Pieratt represented
this district in the Legislature for one
term, and is said to have been an able
Representative. The experience thus
gained will be of advantage in the posi-
ton 20 which he is promoted, and this
Senatorial district will feel safe in the
hands of such a sponsor, OF his oppo-
nent, Mr.. Brown, we know nothing. He
Is doubtless good man, but will hardly
command n sufficient following.

II now begins to look like one part of
our county viii be favored with rail
road, and that in no great while. The
people of the Kentucky Union Co. now
evidently mean business, and if the sub.
scription, askcd of Fayette county, shall
be voted them, which seems more than
probable, that section of our county in
which Campton is the center, will soon
enjoy railroad transportation. 1t will
greatly aid the commerce of this county,
and We hope every thing may work to
aid in the building Of the road. While
that side of the county is thus favored,
there is a little gleam of hope for Hazel
Green. There is chance that the X.

Iet US hope that this little spark may
be famed Into fame that will bring US

cratic party should have large majority
next month, and the effort to secure a big
majority is not made in that interest. The
pcrspirinS statesmen, like their platform,

The occasion for all this unreasonable
energy is easily understood by an observer
from the outside. The strings that hive set

A Kit Of Burglar Tools Found
The Owner Wanted.

Mr.. O. H. Goodsell, who resides a
few miles north of PhiIlipsburg, and
who while not an old resident, comes
well recommended to Kansas had a
somewhat remarkable experience last
week. He has q brOther-in-laW named
D. Z. Brisbee, a blacksmith working
for the Rock Island graders near Man
katO. About ten days ago Brisbee
wrote asking Mr.. GOOdsell to send to
him a suit of clothes left at GOOdsel's
house. Mr.. GoOdsen put into an ordi-
nary satchel, coat pants and vest, tied
the grIp-sack up with q string, and left
it at the Phillipsburg post Office, to be
sent to Marvin and from thence by eX-
press to AIankato. Mr.. GoOdsell heard
no more from the satchel for several
days, but imagine his surprise at having
a detective call on him q few days ago
who for some time talked strangely
and suspiciOusly, and who finally told
him, that the satchel when it arrived at
MankatO, contained an outfit Of burglar
tools, and nothing else, and that he
was in the employ of the Express Com
pany endeavOring to get track of the
owner of the tools. The officer fully
satisfied himself that Mr.. GOOdsell had
no knowledge of how the burglars kit
had got into the satchel so he took the
back track and is doubtless still at work
on the case. It is certain that some
where between Phillipsburg and Man
katO the clothes were taken out and the
burglars out fit put IN. The grip-sack
was not locked and was held shut
with a string. Mr.. GOOdsell says a
number of strangers to him were stand
ing around in the Phillipsburg post
Office when he tied up the satchel and
made inquiries of the postmaster about
leaving it there and having it sent to
Marvin, but he has no suspicious Of any
one. Certain it is that when the
Scrip, " arrived at its destination, Bris-
bees good clothes were gone and he
had no use for the exit. -
